Something new...at least for me

Hello how are you???
It must have been ages since I posted a decent post. Yes; a lot has happened but it's lovely to be back to cardmaking and crafting....

First of all I am so honored to be featured on THIS BLOG. It made me blush :)
Thank you so much Noor and  Tammy ; I feel privileged!

And I also have something different to share; not a card but two tags.
 I tried something new; I made a huge mess with gesso, old book pages, distress ink, pearls, spacers (originally made for creating jewelry), seam binding and die cuts sent to me by Ros (thank you so so much sweetie)

I got inspired by this photo for this challenge 



A neutral color scheme is right up my alleye:)
And I am quite pleased that I made something worth showing after I cleaned up the mess. 

Here are a few close ups:










I hope you like it.
I will  hop over to all your blogs soon. I guess I missed quite some beauties. And in the upcoming days I will catch up. It's good to be back..

Till soon!
Stella

BEAUTIFUL tags, Stella! I'll bet it was fun getting messy with the gesso. ;) Not as much fun to clean up, though!

Kirsty Vittetoe zei

That is so beautiful, thanks for playing along with us at CCCB!

Gerdine zei

Prima gelukt lijkt me zo! Ik vind die neutrale printen altijd nog best moeilijk te verwerken. Ben altijd bang dat het een beetje saai wordt. Maar deze zijn dat absoluut niet!

Ira Huberts zei

Geweldig hoe je al die neutrale tinten hebt verwerkt tot twee prachtige kaarten Stel! En uit welk oud-nederlands boek heb je je teksten gescheurd ha ha ha! Heel gaaf! (Ja, da's mijn tic, along with many others, dat ik altijd wil weten wat voor boek/tekst het is etc.). En wat enig dat je bent gefeatured! Heb net even een kijkje genomen ;-) Liefs, Ira xxx

Sue Lelli zei
